Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

To investigate the effects of different antibiotic regimens used in preterm premature rupture of membranes (PPROM) on maternal and fetal outcomes after 34 weeks of gestation.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Background: To investigate the effects of different antibiotic regimens used in preterm premature rupture of membranes (PPROM) on maternal and fetal outcomes after 34 weeks of gestation.

Methods: A total of 40 pregnant women diagnosed with PPROM after the 34th week of gestation were included in the study and randomly divided into two equal groups. Group-1: Sulbactam + ampicillin, azithromycin, and amoxicillin. Group-2: Ceftriaxone, clarithromycin, and amoxicillin. For all cases, obstetric history, time of delivery, latency period, infection markers, neonatal birth weight, APGAR scores, NICU requirement and length of stay, type of delivery and maternal complications were recorded.
